I just noticed the Mt. Gox's login works by submitting the username and password, unencrypted (well, it posted to an SSL site, but the password is in clear text in the URL).

That makes me very uncomfortable. It makes me suspect the site has not been well coded. I feel like there is a high probability that mtgox is compromised to some degree.

I emailed them but I am still waiting on a response. its a little ridiculous.

I was gonna transfer some coins to MtGox yesterday, until I read this. Now I'm not real sure
I want to use them.

I hope you hear back soon.
What I have done is when I send coins I put them to sell ASAP and then pull all the money out right away. I think that is the best way for me.

So, is MtGoX really secure? My account was kindly hijacked and emptied of $500, thankfully I pulled the bulk out earlier. But how could this happen? I have no malware of any kind on my system, and my password is 12 characters long, Whats up with that? This totally sucks.

Did you find out what happened yet?
